I Really Didn’t Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

Chapter 936: Chapter 572: Staggering but Resolute Advance_1

June, 2685, Crucis Central Space Station, Hot Zone Smart Warfare Training Ground.

After many twists and turns, Tiffany Bell’s T100 finally made its first appearance on the training ground.

This was the first live training session with the T100 in her hands.

The training content was simple, just letting the armor conduct a basic ground movement and reconnaissance in a simulated hot planet environment, starting from the starting point, following the predetermined route, reaching the destination and holding for thirty seconds under a simulated enemy medium-intensity siege to complete the data collection, and then successfully retreating.

There would be some basic obstacles and complex terrain along the planned route.

In order to maintain the secrecy of the mission, the T100 would not be allowed to fly, but would have to walk on the ground.

Although it was the Space Age, both planting bombs and infiltrating alien civilizations were ground tasks.

Ground tasks accounted for a high proportion of special operations.

Although this was just a simple simulation exercise, the pre-set program that Tiffany Bell wrote was also very simple, but this was still a hot topic among the mecha pilot circle of Crucis Central.

Her achievements had already become known.

“Tiffany Bell, are you okay?”

The instructor appeared calm on the surface but was actually so nervous that he kept rubbing his hands.

Tiffany Bell said speechlessly, “Instructor, this is the third time you’ve asked me!”

“Oh, is it? Hahaha, I forgot. You know, I just want your first performance to be a little better, considering so many people are watching us.”

Tiffany Bell wondered, “Are the adults so idle? Instead of doing their own work, they watch me do mine?”

“Well, it’s not exactly that, observing the T100 is part of their work too.”

“Really? Then I’m a little bit nervous.”

Tiffany Bell scratched her head and said.

The instructor rolled his eyes secretly, thinking to himself that he hadn’t even noticed the word ‘nervous’ in her demeanor.

“Alright, put more effort in, go on.”

The instructor waved his hand, and Tiffany Bell turned around and bounced away, full of energy.

Watching her cheerful figure, the instructor thought to himself that kids were just better at this, having a strong ability to psychologically adjust and forgetting unhappy things quickly.

Others might not have been able to get over it so quickly after being trapped in the intelligence core for so many days.

As for Harrison Clark, he was also a little nervous.

He had already seen the pre-set program produced by Tiffany Bell and had a complete mental model of how to cooperate with it.

Since becoming Quantum Intelligence, he had rarely been so focused on something.

There wasn’t much important stuff to worry him anyway.

Harrison Clark had every step of the operation memorized perfectly.

Since it was the first show, he naturally had to put in some effort.

…

“Three, two…”

Amid the countdown, T100 broke through the shield, burst out with a roar, its multi-segmented long legs boldly unfolded, extended eight gear-shaped solid tires, full power, roared and rotated, firing forward like a bolt of lightning.

For a moment, dust filled the air, the ground shook, and the test field appeared as if an earthquake had struck.

The momentum of T100’s sprint was overwhelming and awe-inspiring.

The scene looked spectacular, but the jaws of Tiffany Bell, the instructor, and Harrison Clark all dropped to the ground.

The instructor looked at Tiffany Bell with a sad face, “Is this the sneak program you set?”

Where’s the clandestine ground operation they agreed on?

Tiffany Bell shook her head blankly, “No, I didn’t…”

“But this… this is way too earth-shattering for a stealth mission!”

The instructor covered his face, too ashamed to show his face.

On Harrison Clark’s side, Star also looked at him with a very profound expression.

“What kind of operation did you envision in your mind before?”

Harrison Clark coughed lightly, “Yes, that’s correct. Trust me.”

“Pah! I know you too well. You must have analyzed the situation in your head first. You thought like this: ‘The first part of the route is sandy, so if you want to sneak, you should avoid raising sand and dust and leaving traces on the ground as much as possible. So you should use large-diameter needle-shaped wheels, and also use spikes over twenty meters long, then move forward quietly and slowly.'”

“Uh.”

“Right? You probably even arranged the sharpness and density of the needle wheels. The rest of it is pretty much the same, with you being so meticulous and well-planned. But the T100 led the plan astray from the start.”

Harrison Clark sighed, “Well, anyway, it still has impressive mobility. Look at its acceleration, how pleasing and handsome it is.”

Star turned her face away.

Over the years, Harrison Clark’s progress in other aspects was negligible, but the thickness of his face had increased quite a bit.

There was no doubt that Tiffany Bell’s first performance ended in failure.

The instructor didn’t dare to go out for several days, afraid of running into other people.He contacted Tiffany Bell twice a day on average, fearing that her young age would make it difficult for her to cope psychologically with such a blow.

Much to his surprise, Tiffany’s calm and collected demeanor made him feel rather redundant.

“Instructor, Tom is different from ordinary armor. I can feel that he has his own thoughts.”

“Huh? His own thoughts? Don’t joke around. The anthropomorphic level of the Quantum Intelligence in the armor is high, but that’s not the same as autonomous thinking.”

Seeing the instructor’s disbelief, Tiffany urgently said, “Really! I can feel that he is not just a machine, there’s a person’s soul living inside his system! Tom has a soul! He’s just sleeping, and I’m sure I can wake him up!”

The instructor rolled his eyes, “Fine, whatever you think.”

As long as Tiffany wasn’t adversely affected, the instructor didn’t interfere too much, just recorded the incident in his report.

Pilots occasionally have whimsical ideas that defy logic, and as their instructor, he wouldn’t deliberately restrain them.

However, it was extremely rare for someone like Tiffany to believe that armor systems were real people rather than artificial intelligence.

But this wasn’t strange, as everyone knew that children had the richest imagination.

Harrison Clark certainly saw the instructor’s report.

It seems he had been exposed.

The little girl’s intuition was a bit terrifying.

Meanwhile, Tiffany was sitting cross-legged in T100’s cockpit.

Her right hand was on the neural linker.

Ever since she was trapped inside for the first time and broke the deadlock through Chess, she developed a keen interest in this ancient skill.

She enjoyed playing against Tom, but had no interest in playing against other AI or players.

In her own words, it allowed her to feel the opponent’s soul getting closer and closer, so she believed she would be able to truly control Tom one day.

Not only did she play Chess, but she also constantly chatted away, seemingly never running out of conversation topics, from childhood anecdotes to her expectations for the Witton Galaxy after their arrival.

It was as if she wanted to open up her brain and lay all its contents before T100.

“Seems like you’ve been discovered. What will you do? If you don’t do something, she’ll probably keep blabbering on like this forever. Sigh, she doesn’t realize that the soul she imagines is just a copy of your thoughts. The so-called unstable autonomous thoughts are just errors in thought resonance. I wonder if this little girl can handle the truth.”

Star said teasingly.

Harrison Clark fell silent.

He shook his head, “I don’t know. I also don’t know if T100 can be stabilized.”

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, another two or three months passed, and the transport ship was about to leave Crucis.

At this time, Tiffany participated in the first comprehensive evaluation test along with the newly recruited pilots of the entire Empire.

The result was a dismal last place.

She ranked last in the new pilot assessment, which was calculated in billions throughout the entire Empire.

Of course, it wasn’t her fault.

But she ended up taking the blame.

In the Design Institute and the Special Operations Command, there were already voices calling for a new pilot for T100.

Although the little girl had good coordination skills, she still couldn’t achieve satisfactory control results, so they should probably continue screening.

Hearing that she might lose Tom, Tiffany finally learned how to feel heartbroken.

When no one was around, she hid in a corner, hugged her legs, and cried quietly.

Quietly watching this scene, Harrison Clark finally couldn’t help but speak out.

Of course, he had just thought of a solution, but he wasn’t sure if Tiffany could do it.

“Hello.”

That’s what he thought in his mind, while at the same time, T100 made a synchronized response, directly transmitting the sound to Tiffany’s communicator in the form of Quantum Intelligence.

She was stunned, “Ah! Who is it?”

“It’s me, T100.”

Harrison Clark spoke here.

T100 made a synchronized response on the other side.

He was a bit surprised that the transmission of two consecutive sentences went without error.

It seemed that the thought resonance was very stable when he communicated directly with this little girl.

“What?! Oh my gosh! Really? Tom?”

Tiffany was startled on the other side.

Immediately after, she was overjoyed.

The fact that the armor intelligence actively spoke to her confirmed her initial feelings were correct!

He had a soul!

She even forgot about the fact that she was about to be replaced.
